...peek into animal history in the area, take the road north out of town, then a left on the dirt track to Nieu Bethesda. There, at the foot of Lootsberg Pass (just follow the signs), you'll find the Kitching Fossil Exploration Centre, the world's best record of the Permian period (250 million years ago) when saber-toothed, tiger-sized lizards called gorgonopsians preyed on herds of herbivorous dicynodonts, which had tusks and tortoise-like beaks. Nieu Bethesda has other attractions. The Owl House, decorated with finely ground multicolored glass, was the home and life's work of "outsider...

...Some 50 U.S. navy vessels pass through Hong Kong in a normal year and the only time entry has been refused before was during crises such as the bombing by American planes of the Chinese Embassy in Belgrade in 1999 and the mid-air collision of a Chinese fighter and a U.S. surveillance plane in 2001. So in diplomatic terms, the Kitty Hawk refusal was a pretty sharp rebuke. It was also a much more calculated move than it at first appeared: The Pentagon revealed in the days after the incident that two other ships and a U.S. Air Force...
